Give, and Ride Free

Today through December 31 is the "DMT Season of Giving," a special time of the year when Danville Mass Transit is promoting the spirit of giving. If you're a DMT rider, this is your chance to share your holiday spirit by giving to a great cause.

Here's how it works:
  1. Use your blue DMT bag to collect non-perishable food items such as canned vegetables, peanut butter, spaghetti, canned meats, soups, etc. If you need a blue DMT bag, you can pick one up from our office at 101 N. Jackson St., in Danville (while supplies last).
  2. Use the bag to take your donation to the Salvation Army Emergency Food Pantry at 855 E. Fairchild, Monday to Friday 9AM to Noon or 1 to 4PM. The shelter is served by DMT routes 4 Bowman, 5 Fairchild, and 6 Main/Fairchild. Regular fare will be required for these trips.
  3. When you donate, the Salvation Army will give you a free DMT 5-Ride Ticket, courtesy of DMT.
Happy holidays from all of us at DMT! We hope you will take part in our Season of Giving. For more information call 217-431-0653 or click www.rideDMT.org.
